New Delhi, April 15: Prime Minister Narendra Modi wished the people on the seventh day of the ongoing Chaitra Navratri 2024 festival on Monday. On the seventh day of Chaitra Navratri, Saptami, 'Maa Kalratri' is worshipped by the devotees. In a post on X, PM Modi said, "It is my wish that, by the grace of Maa Kaalratri, positive energy should flow in everyone's life." Kaalratri is one of the fiercest forms of Durga. This form of goddess is believed to be the destroyer of all demon entities, ghosts, spirits, and negative energies.
